No matter which task you have ahead of you, at least you are not the fire nation soldier who had to inform Ozai about how and why the siege on the north failed
I firmly believe that how feminist a book is is better demonstrated by its background characters rather than its mains
What I mean by this is that a book may have “feminist” female leads who are strong, competent, complex, whatever, but how do they portray women just...existing in the world? Are there women in the background, or is the fantasy novel with its strong independent Action Girl protagonists set on a background of generic male soldiers, guards, councilors, shopkeepers, messengers, and wizard apprentices? Are minor characters ever women when there’s no particular reason for them to be? When women appear in the background of your story, do they have any unique qualities that hint at a complex picture we’re not seeing or do they slide seamlessly into Pampered Noblewoman, Prostitute and Vaguely Maternal Older Woman Who Runs A Tavern Or Something?
If your protagonist is a fighter or magic user, do you show other women in those roles? If your society is more relaxed about sex discrimination, have you built a world that looks like it?
Have you built a world where your female characters don’t all have to be The Best At Everything, or is almost every female character placed where she can be extraordinary next to a bunch of male counterparts? Are you comfortable letting a female wizard or warrior be average or unimportant, or does she have to be one of the most skilled and powerful of them all, able to match or best all the men around her? On the other hand, are you comfortable having a female wizard or warrior be indisputably the most skilled or powerful out of the wizards or warriors, without drawing attention to her gender, placing her in competition with men, or having her be an exception to the rule because she’s female?
Are you letting your female characters be mediocre and un-extraordinary? Your world is full of powerful sorceresses, fierce battle maidens and calculating noblewomen, but do women do things in this world other than be Exemplary and Great and Awesome? If you’ve established that women do business and fight, do you have female soldiers carousing at bars and vaguely dull female Evil Minions Of The Dark Lord bumbling around doing evil bidding and female apprentices slacking on work or is every background woman we see competent and controlled and intelligent and doing whatever it is she’s doing without error, whereas only men are allowed to be foolish, impulsive, mess things up, or just be shown unflatteringly during the couple sentences we know them? In other words, does the world show women being unapologetically human beings or are all your female characters basically making up for being women by not doing anything that would badly represent their gender?
In particular, if you’re trying to show a society with gender equality, that means the dark lord is willing to hire women who are bumbling idiots as guards, and not just that some female wizards climbed their way to the top and became As Good As Men because they’re so badass they can snap god like a bunch of uncooked spaghetti.
This is not who you are… you know who you are.

Day 30 of 100 days of productivity
The weather has been getting so much better! It’s been nice to walk to the library without getting completely soaked!
I’ve been enjoying listening to study with me’s on YouTube, as most of friends study at different times or are abroad at the moment! So it’s quite nice studying with ‘someone’.
Been doing a lot of enthalpy and calculations in chemistry at the moment! 📚📚
Hope everyone has a great day!
27.04.18 [1/40 days of productivity]
Hey! I decided to start productivity program for my last month in second year law school studies. Nearly I finished my half of the university education, so that it’s getting serious. So, I want to make better not only my university lectures, but also my entire life because I’m living alone and I have a lot of responsibilities cuz of that. I have to control my time strictly, productivity may help me to make something nice. Let’s start a new journey! 🐥
things i learned my first semester of college
1. Don’t lose ID
2. Drink lots of water. It makes you feel better about yourself. Buy a nice water bottle to encourage this.
3. You’re only a dorky freshman if you act like one.
4. Make your bed and do laundry. It will make you feel better about your living space.
5. Celebrate the little victories.
6. I mean really celebrate, like get cake or something
7. Take naps, but don’t miss out on quality time
8. You do not have to be friends with people you don’t like. Seriously. Surround yourself with uplifting people who make you happy.
9. Go home and appreciate your mother
10. Text your family at least on a weekly basis so they know how you are
11. Life gets hard. Surround yourself with people who make it easier, not more complicated.
12. Do not look for happiness in the same place you lost it.
13. You cannot give someone your whole heart if you are using pieces of it to hate someone else.
14. You can never love enough for two people. You’re not supposed to.
15. The show must go on. Everything always goes wrong, and that’s okay. Learn to deal with it, dust yourself off, and keep going
16. Don’t check up on people who have decided you’re no longer a part of their life.
